▻http://www.ressler.at/in_the_red
In the Red is a film about the Strike Debt group, an offshoot organization of Occupy Wall Street in New York City. The group organizes around debts, an instrument of control and maintenance of economic power. Strike Debt initiates several activities to expose hidden mechanisms of financial capitalism. Similar to Occupy, the movement organizes along affinity groups: The theory group issues a handbook—the Debt Resistors’ Operations Manual—for those attempting to renounce their debt. The action group organizes protests, provides free medical care and information about their activities. The Rolling Jubilee group buys, for very little money, the huge amounts of personal debt the banks have already written off; they then “abolish” the debts and therefore free the debtors from their bills. By this grandiose act, Strike Debt spreads information about how the secondary debt market is working. Few people in the U.S. know that when individuals consistently fail to pay bills from credit cards, loans, or medical insurance, their bank or lender usually sells that debt to a third party. These sales occur for a fraction of the debt’s true value—typically for five cents on the dollar—and debt-buying companies then attempt to recoup the debt from the individual debtor and thus make a profit.
Evénements artistiques à la maison (ou privé) !
Que du bon...
Un membre de la liste des géographes critiques demande à ses collègues de lui donner des références d’événements artistiques spécifiquement formatés pour être présentés “à la maison”, dans nos foyers, en milieu local.
C’est l’occasion de donner quelques liens sur ce phénomène intéressant :

make-shift is an intimate networked performance and discussion event that re-imagines the private actions of our domestic lives as multiple, interconnected and with global consequences.
Each event takes place simultaneously in two ordinary houses connected through an online interface, accessible through the Live Stage link on this website to anyone around the world with internet access. Not only telematically connecting artists in two different spaces nor working in a purely online chat/graphic format: make-shift combines the two, creating real-time dialogue between houses and people across the globe.

A Room with a View: An interview with co-author and director of ‘This City’s Centre’
The recent project known as This City’s Centre, created by the collective Blind Ditch, has been causing quite a stir in Exeter as it is getting residents to question what lies behind their city centre. The Exeter Daily managed to grab a conversation with the co-author of the project, Paula Crutchlow, to find out more about this fascinating project and how a view from your window can not only be a piece of art but can also trigger a conversation as to what is private and public space.
Hear more about the making process in Private Views and Public Art, a discussion between videographer Volkhardt Müller and Cultural Geographer John Wylie (University of Exeter) held at RAMM, 13 Sept 2013 (running time 1hr 1min).

HoMu Cribs
In June 2006, HoMu participated in Grand Arts’ event series Urban Test Sites, presenting HoMu Cribs, a museum-for-a-day displayed in private homes, or “cribs”, in Kansas City (MO). Noterdaeme installed several originals and replicas from the Collection of the Homeless Museum in volunteers’ homes and gardens and led a group of visitors through the various “cribs” for a walking tour.

Ideas are Key to ’Homeless’ Tour of Art
By ALEX SCHUBERT, special to The Kansas City Star
June 17, 2006
Filip Noterdaeme has been known to welcome visitors to his two-bedroom Brooklyn apartment by playing the fake-bearded director of the Homeless Museum.
The Belgian-born New York artist calls his bathroom the museum’s “Curatorial Department” and has appointed a stuffed coyote its “Director of Public Relations.”
A “Homeless Museum”? It’s not what you think.
Founded by Noterdaeme in 2003, this semi-fictitious museum is simultaneously a send-up of art institutions and a triumph of word play: a museum without a building containing artworks revolving around homelessness.
Sponsored by Grand Arts, the project brings an ironic twist to the MTV show “Cribs,” which tours the homes of celebrities.

Les moutons de François-Xavier Lalanne se sont échappés...
Et soudain, à l’angle de de la 24e rue et de la 10e avenue dans le quartier Chealsy à New-York, une oeuvre d’art...
Un coin de rue, une vielle station service, des moutons et du gazon. Voilà l’installation complètement surréaliste de l’artiste français François-Xavier Lalanne. Il en avait réalisé d’autres avec ses célèbres moutons, mais celle-ci est de loin la plus grande. Voilà, la nature aura pris le pas sur le symbole du monde industrialisé.

« Le cours des choses », une merveilleuse installation artistique vidéographique créée par deux artistes vidéastes zurichois, Peter Fischli et David Weiss
Passer une après-midi à la cité des sciences de la Villette avec ses enfants n’est pas du temps perdu. Eux, ils s’éclatent, et finalement moi aussi, en découvrant au détour d’une des expo ce petit film de 30 minutes sobrement intitulé « Le cours des choses ». Le film date de 1986, et voici comment il est présenté :

@reka, il existe par ailleurs un documentaire à propos de Fischli et Weiss justement occupés dans leur atelier à régler les enchaînements du Cours des choses qui laisse songeur à propos de leur perfectionnisme admirablement masqué par le bordel de cette affaire.
Des mêmes tu as aussi les petites sculptures narratives qui représentent par exemple les époux Einstein endormis tandis qu’ils viennent de concevoir le petit Albert, ou Mick Jagger et Keith Richards qui sortent des studios d’enregistrement après avoir enregistré Satisfaction qui sont à la fois de très belles petites sculptures et des représentations de choses ayant à la fois existé et en fait pas du tout.
@reka, je ne vois rigoureusement aucune point commun entre le cours des choses de Fischli et Weiss, qui est une oeuvre d’art à la grâce remarquable, avec ses lenteurs de transformation, ses juxtapositions quasi métaphysiques entre le feu, la glace qui fond, les liquides, une sorte de désordre admirable, expérimental, aux prolongements de pensée enivrants, et ce consternant étalage de matériel frimeur, et bien autocentré, bien content de soi, à des fins purement publicitaires.

Going For a Ride ? Une histoire palestinienne
Art de résistance : L’installation de voitures détruites par les Israéliens. Vera Tamarai, Ramallah, 2002
Lorsque nous étions en reportage en Palestine/Israël avec Dominique Vidal en décembre 2006, le directeur du centre culturel de Ramallah nous avait raconté qu’une artiste palestinienne, Vera Tamari, avait réalisé une installation artistique à Ramallah, laquelle représentait une file de voitures détruite lors de l’invasion de Ramallah l’armée israélienne en Avril 2002, alors que les Israéliens se redéployaient dans toute la Cisjordanie.
Il nous avait expliqué que les Israéliens, totalement furieux de cette initiative, sont venus avec leurs chars le jour du vernissage et sont passés plusieurs fois sur les voitures déjà détruites... Détruisant l’installation artistique qui ne prétendait être qu’un symbole du destin tragique du peuple palestinien.
Le centre culturel français de Ramallah partage les locaux avec l’Institut Goethe, dont le site Internet propose une fiche biographique de Vera Tamari et surtout le fichier pdf téléchargeable d’une longue recension de cette expo par Penny Johnson (Ramallah Dada : The Reality of the Absurd)

J’ai retrouvé une photo de cette installation (avant le passage des chars israéliens) sur le site de Ramallah Online
“Going For a Ride,” is a video presentation of Vera Tamari’s art installation of demolished cars, that took place in June 2002.
In June 2002, on opening night of the exhibition of Vera Tamari’s art installation (demolished cars in Ramallah), Israeli tanks circled the site and rolled over the destroyed cars (Photo courtesy of Director Nahed Awwad).
Through informational text, Director Nahed Awwad explains that during April 2002, the Israeli Army invaded several cities, killed people, demolished buildings and cars. In Ramallah, Israeli bulldozers crushed 600 – 700 cars. After the invasion, several men rolled fresh asphalt onto an open area for Tamari’s art installation of the smashed cars. The exhibition displayed the destruction and it was a way for the Palestinian people to cope with their tragic experiences.
